The Design Contest for Macao Tourism Mascot calls for entries starting today (23 October), as organized by the Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO) together with the co-organizers, the Cultural Affairs Bureau and the Cultural Industry Fund.
Through the Contest, MGTO aims to collect outstanding entries of tourism mascot designs that highlight the unique and fascinating dimensions of Macao as a travel destination, with the hope to bring out a fresh and positive tourism image of the city. The Contest encourages participants to show their artistic talent and creativity in their entries, impelling the tourism industry and the cultural and creative industries to move forward while demonstrating the orientation of Macao as a cosmopolitan city for travelers.
